This is Gyokuro? More like Peach Tea. Most folks adore this fruity, floral take on green tea, finding it elegant and relaxing, though a few purists aren't buying the name. If you fancy a sweet, refreshing brew, it's a winner, but don't expect a traditional tea ceremony.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with the fresh, clean character of peach tea and subtle florals, make it versatile for daily wear, especially in office or casual settings. While pleasant, it may lack the gravitas for truly formal events, and its gentle nature makes it less ideal for an energetic date or sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Gyokuro opens with a bright burst of fruits and a subtle zing of pepper and neroli, quickly settling into a prominent heart of sweet peach and delicate lotus, underscored by creamy tuberose and a gentle whisper of tea. The base smooths out with warm sandalwood, earthy vetiver, and a hint of ambergris, creating a soft, inviting finish. It's a fresh, fruity floral with a green tea nuance.
